My adult female Santa Ritas locality Senticolis triaspis intermedia finally laid a clutch of five BIG eggs, slightly more than two weeks after her pre-laying shed. I paired her with my adult male a few times, but here is a pic I got of them copulating during one of those pairings.

She left her eggs before I could get a pic of her with them, but here they are in the incubation tub.

Now comes the 90 plus day wait...

Thanks Doug!

When they hatch will be better - for me. I worry from breeding all the way through incubation. LOL The babies are mostly trouble free, aside from some only wanting live prey. I have successfully switched some over to taking f/t though...

both my CB Santa Rita and Patagonia animals laid their eggs around the same time, they are very near to hatching at 75 days.
